Which of the following contain the same number of atoms? (Given : Molar mass in gmol−1\mathrm{g} \mathrm{mol}^{-1} of H,He,O\mathrm{H}, \mathrm{He}, \mathrm{O} and S are 1,4,161,4,16 and 32 respectively) A. 2 g of O2\mathrm{O}_{2} gas B. 4 g fo SO2\mathrm{SO}_{2} gas C. 1400 mL of O2\mathrm{O}_{2} at STP D. 0.05 L of He at STP

E, 0.0625 mol∘0.0625 \mathrm{~mol}^{\circ} of H2\mathrm{H}_{2} gas Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. Option A:

    A and B only

  2. Option B:

    B and C only

  3. Option C:

    C and D only

  4. Option D:

    A, C and E only

    Correct

Answer: D
